And yes, thank-you to President Biden for assisting the Ukraine in this fight.

My favorite part about Trump’s assistance to the Ukraine was when he withheld $500 million until Zelinskiy published dirt on Joe Biden. I think he got impeached for that and it is now part of what some call the “Russia hoax.”

Yes, this war would not be occurring if Trump were president, because he would have made sure Putin had everything he wanted and more. There would be no reason to go to war if you already had everything you wanted.

Trump has proven himself to be compromised many times over (sorry for the formatting. I will continue to copy this whenever it is relevant, to remind people the kind of person and president Donald J. Trump was.)

There is plenty of that kind of aid as well.

But it sounds like they're still working out the details.

Their gas and power lines are turned off.
Neighborhoods in the Ukraine look much nicer than their hood.

"They need to go help Ukraine, 'cause... I'm not going to pay no 6, 7 dollars for no gas."

Democrats as usual are all for giving other people our money but our own.

So far this year, the Biden administration has provided Ukraine with $1 billion in military and humanitarian aid, including $350 million announced yesterday.

Biden to send $350M in military aid to Ukraine

With this information now provided to the Biden haters, I predict that the same ones who said Biden wasn't doing anything to help them, will now come around and tell us that by sending them military aid, he is escalating the war, or something along those lines ...

... Which will only go to show that the Biden haters will simply make up anything they can to attack him, including changing their narrative willy-nilly as it's convenient for them.

Time for an update:

Biden Administration to Provide Ukraine With More Intelligence, Heavier Weapons to Fight Russia

The Biden administration is moving to significantly expand the intelligence it is providing to Ukraine’s forces so they can target Moscow’s military units in Russian-occupied Donbas and Crimea, part of a shift in U.S. support that also includes a new security assistance package with heavier weaponry.

The new intelligence guidance comes as the White House said that it will send $800 million in additional weapons to Kyiv, including artillery, armored personnel carriers and helicopters, to help Ukrainian forces hold off a major Russian offensive in the eastern part of the country that is expected to unfold in coming days.

[Mathguy]

Weird how Putin keeps waiting for Biden to be in the Whitehouse before invading despite all the talk about Trump working for him. lol.

Why wasn't this aid provided when the Crimea was invaded? Seems like that soft response just triggered more.

[vincenze]

The Ukrainian president wants $7 billion, and every month.

That is completely unreasonable!

The U.S. has given billions in aid to Ukraine and not another penny or weapon should go to their country.

[irishcopper]

While I agree with supporting Ukraine I'm leery of sending them billions of U.S. dollars with little accountability or oversight. Otherwise Ukraine will become the next fiscal boondoggle in Washington. I wonder how much of that $14 billion and now $800 million in military assistance will ever be accounted for? We got burned in Afghanistan and that could easily occur in Ukraine regardless if whether or not the Russians are ultimately victorious. This spending doesn't include black funds for CIA covert operations. No doubt the CIA Directorate of Operations has people on the ground in Ukraine (and maybe Russia). The 16K plus international volunteers including 3K Americans are an ideal cover for them. I'm sure Joe and Kamala have no clue. Plausible deniability and all that.
